While Drupal VM caters specifically to Drupal, and support for and compatibility with other PHP applications isn't guaranteed, Drupal VM is flexible enough to work with PHP applications besides Drupal.

Wordpress

To integrate Drupal VM with an existing Wordpress project such as bedrock, follow the documentation on using Drupal VM as a Composer dependency.

Begin by forking/cloning bedrock as a boilerplate for your application, and require Drupal VM as a development dependency.

composer require --dev geerlingguy/drupal-vm

Configure the VM by creating a config/config.yml:

vagrant_hostname: bedrock.dev
vagrant_machine_name: bedrock

vagrant_synced_folders:
  - local_path: .
    destination: /var/www/wordpress
    type: nfs
    create: true

# Needs to match with what we have in .env and vagrant_synced_folders.
drupal_core_path: "/var/www/wordpress/web"
drupal_domain: "{{ vagrant_hostname }}"
drupal_db_user: wordpress
drupal_db_password: wordpress
drupal_db_name: wordpress

# Disable Drupal specific features.
drupal_build_composer_project: false
drupal_install_site: false
configure_drush_aliases: false

# Remove some Drupal extras such as `drupalconsole` and `drush`
installed_extras:
  - adminer
  - mailhog
  - pimpmylog

# Add wp-cli
composer_global_packages:
  - { name: hirak/prestissimo, release: '^0.3' }
  - { name: wp-cli/wp-cli, release: '^1.0.0' }

Create the delegating Vagrantfile in the root of the project:

# The absolute path to the root directory of the project. Both Drupal VM and
# the config file need to be contained within this path.
ENV['DRUPALVM_PROJECT_ROOT'] = "#{__dir__}"
# The relative path from the project root to the config directory where you
# placed your config.yml file.
ENV['DRUPALVM_CONFIG_DIR'] = "config"
# The relative path from the project root to the directory where Drupal VM is located.
ENV['DRUPALVM_DIR'] = "vendor/geerlingguy/drupal-vm"

# Load the real Vagrantfile
load "#{__dir__}/#{ENV['DRUPALVM_DIR']}/Vagrantfile"

Edit your .env file to match the values you set in config/config.yml:

DB_NAME=wordpress
DB_USER=wordpress
DB_PASSWORD=wordpress
DB_HOST=localhost

WP_ENV=development
WP_HOME=http://bedrock.dev
WP_SITEURL=${WP_HOME}/wp

Ignore local Drupal VM configuration files by adding the following to your .gitignore:

Vagrantfile.local
config/local.config.yml

Add a wp-cli @dev alias that points to the VM by editing the wp-cli.yml file:

path: web/wp

@dev:
  ssh: vagrant@bedrock.dev/var/www/wordpress/web/wp
  url: bedrock.dev

For passwordless login with wp-cli add the following to your SSH config ~/.ssh/config:

Host bedrock.dev
  StrictHostKeyChecking no
  IdentityFile ~/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key

Provision the VM and import your database.

vagrant up
